Local roofing specialists serving Findon and the BN14 postcode. Period flint and stone cottages, Georgian and Victorian village stock, 20th cent. Free quotes, no call-out fee.
Period flint and stone cottages, Georgian and Victorian village stock, 20th century infill. The dominant roofing issues in Findon are: Elevated at 70m+ — higher wind speeds than coastal Worthing; lime mortar essential on flint properties; ridge and hip mortar failure from wind exposure.
South Downs escarpment location at 70m creates significantly higher wind loads than lower Worthing; more pronounced frost and freeze-thaw than coastal properties. We apply appropriate coastal-grade materials and specification on every Findon job as standard — not as a premium upcharge.
Salt particles from the Channel are hygroscopic — they attract and retain moisture, keeping timber permanently damp rather than allowing it to dry between rain events. South and south-west facing fascias deteriorate 18–24 months faster than north-facing equivalent on the same property. In coastal West Sussex, uPVC replacement is the correct long-term specification for fascias on all exposed elevations.
On any coastal West Sussex property, the south and south-west facing fascia is the priority inspection face. If the south elevation looks borderline, the north elevation will appear fine — but acting on both at once, in a single scaffold visit, is significantly cheaper than two separate jobs.

Before any quote, we assess the rafter feet behind the fascia. Salt air and coastal humidity cause rafter foot rot on coastal properties that is invisible until the fascia is removed. Capping over a rotten rafter foot creates a false economy.
Where timber is structurally sound but surface-deteriorated, uPVC cap-over is faster and cheaper. Where timber has rotted through, full strip-back to rafter foot and new uPVC installation is required.
We fit vented soffit panels on all replacement jobs and check existing cross-ventilation is adequate. In Worthing's elevated coastal humidity, inadequate roof void ventilation causes condensation damage that is invisible until re-roofing.
